    mere bistar ke paas

    piilī piilī

    idhar jal rahī hai jo ik mom-battī

    usī laraztī huī raushnī meñ

    maiñ qasdan kitāb ek paḌhne koshish meñ huuñ

    achānak se kāñptā vo sho.ala

    merī bedār āñkhoñ ko mar.ūb kartā hai aise

    ki maiñ us ke is naach meñ

    aur pighle hue mom meñ mahv ho jaatī huuñ

    jo pighle hue mom ke gird be-tarah shakleñ banāne meñ mashġhūl hai

    der tak maiñ use dekhtī huuñ

    yahāñ tak ki pighle hue mom ke sivā kuchh bhī bachtā nahīñ hai

    maiñ chhup jaatī huuñ lambe pardoñ ke biich

    aur takiye pe sar rakh ke

    us mom-battī ke baare meñ phir sochtī huuñ

    jo baaqī hai

    aur apne jīvan ke baare meñ bhī jo ki hai

    savāl uThtā hai ki merī zindagī bhī is tarah

    kuchh der tak jaltī jaltī chamaktī huī ḳhatm ho jā.egī

    ain mumkin hai aisā ho

    aur mission merā puurā to ho jā.egā

    agar ye faqat chand ghanTe jale aur dūsroñ ke liye

    kuchh chamak aur damak bhī muhayyā kar le

    mere bistar ke pas

    pili pili

    idhar jal rahi hai jo ek mom-batti

    usi ki larazti hui raushni mein

    main qasdan kitab ek paDhne ki koshish mein hun

    achanak se kanpta wo shoala

    meri bedar aankhon ko marub karta hai aise

    ki main us ke is nach mein

    aur pighle hue mom mein mahw ho jati hun

    jo pighle hue mom ke gird be-tarah shaklen banane mein mashghul hai

    der tak main use dekhti hun

    yahan tak ki pighle hue mom ke siwa kuchh bhi bachta nahin hai

    main chhup jati hun lambe pardon ke bich

    aur takiye pe sar rakh ke

    us mom-batti ke bare mein phir sochti hun

    jo baqi hai

    aur apne jiwan ke bare mein bhi jo ki hai

    sawal uThta hai ki meri zindagi bhi is tarah

    kuchh der tak jalti jalti chamakti hui KHatm ho jaegi

    ain mumkin hai aisa hi ho

    aur mission mera pura to ho jaega

    agar ye faqat chand ghanTe jale aur dusron ke liye

    kuchh chamak aur damak bhi muhayya kar le
